Breanne's POV
It was the morning of the first day back to school. Junior year. I was ready to see my friend's (Ash) ,and (Lacey). We didn't get a chance to see one another over the summer. I spent my summer with my mom. She introduced me to her long time best friend, they seemed to know each other pretty well. Dad was always working , pretty much never had time to spend with his only daughter. My mom's best friend Wendell was cool. I was surprised she didn't introduce us sooner. I could see why they were such good friends , I need more friend's like that. I was now leaving home , excited that for once It wasn't summer anymore.
Before I walked out the door , I notice a note on the kitchen table.
It said:
Breanne. I have something important to tell you. I have to leave for a business trip. I'm sorry to leave you on the morning of your first day back to school. It was truly my intention to drive you there. I've asked Wendell to look after you while I'm gone. Its just 2 months. I'm just a phone call away. Have a great day. Wendell will be here at the house when u come from school. Sorry this is so sudden, but I trust Wendell and so should you. He's good company. Respect him.
Love,Mom.
I didn't know what to think. She left me. I just met the guy and she already trusts him with looking out for me. Suddenly my first day of school had just gotten bad. When I made my way to school trying to piece together how the rest of the day could be. First period , was mathematics. How I hate math. Lacey and Ash were waiting on me. When I first walked in I noticed the squeak in Lacey's voice.
"HEYY" They both shouted. I think they were over joyed and I couldn't stop thinking about that note. Class passed by pretty fast. I texted Ash and Lacey as I was sitting there waiting for everything to be over. We were laughing and making jokes about the new teachers. The other classes were slow. Science, English, and P.E was like time had stopped. I guess the closer it got to getting home the more I wanted to stay. What could be so bad about staying in a house with Wendell? I mean I did meet him, he was nice.
